Construction of a 50-foot sailboat continues with the fabrication of structural bulkheads using vacuum bagging and West System epoxy. To accelerate curing in a cold barn environment, electric blankets provide localized heat, maintaining surface temperatures between 28 and 35 degrees Celsius.9:48 The build team reinforces bulkheads near the mast with two layers of 600g Bi-X and one layer of 300g woven fiberglass on each side.6:12 A significant design change involves flipping the interior layout to consolidate the galley and its storage into a single area, while relocating the head and shower entrance away from the cooking space.16:32 Future work includes engineering chain plate reinforcements with carbon fiber to accommodate separated top and lower shrouds, a process involving consultation with a naval architect to manage load paths.19:06 The team plans to delay cutting door openings in complex, narrow bulkheads until after lamination to prevent panel deformation.20:34
